"I've tried that type of positive thinking but it never works". Instead, "something bad usually happens" such as my pipes breaking with bad water leakage or I get sick. Somehow, "the more positive I try to be the worse things get." "My life is really cursed and there just isn't anything I can do about it.
I'm sorry you see things that way. When my life is headed that way it usually means that something in my life needs to be changed, attitude or action, and when I work on fixing that, the rest falls into place.

Great article. A long time ago I realized that I needed to let go of resentment or grudges towards people who had done me wrong, because it was only hurting me, physically and mentally. Taking up my time that I could use for better things and thoughts. You might be the only one thinking about the negative situation. Plus I realized that that these people or situations made me push harder to do and become a better person in whatever I could. I didn't want to join anyone in their misery but be grateful for everything I had been blessed with. Did away with alot and changed surroundings, it might be necessary!
